Peri-Menopausal Optimization

Meaning

Peri-menopausal optimization is a comprehensive, proactive clinical approach to managing the complex and fluctuating hormonal transitions that characterize the years leading up to and immediately following the final menstrual period. This strategy involves individualized assessment and therapeutic intervention—often including bioidentical hormone replacement, targeted supplementation, and lifestyle modification—aimed at alleviating vasomotor symptoms, preserving bone mineral density, and maintaining cardiovascular and cognitive health. The goal is to smooth the transition through this phase, preventing the long-term decline in healthspan often associated with unchecked hormonal fluctuation and eventual deficiency.
